How many shows do you show a year? Typically around 7, but last year I only showed three times, and this year I'll be lucky if I show at all.
How far apart do you break? Sometimes they're back-to-back weekends, sometimes they're not. Depends on what I have the energy/funds for
How long are they? 8am-2pm, typically, but bigger shows are longer days.

How many classes do you show a day? Typically 7, but again, it depends on the show
Are they spread out? There are usually 2-3 classes between each of my classes, but some (such as halter/showmanship) are back to back.
Back to back? Yes ^
If its a one day show or a two day show does it make a difference in what you'll have them do? Nope. I wouldn't say that my shows are extraordinarily strenuous. I ask a bit more of him in the pleasure classes than the others, but it's just flat work ,and classes last around 10 minutes each, so it's not typically very taxing. He gets a bit more fatigued toward the end of the day, understandably, but I never feel as though I'm pushing him beyond his abilities.
